Keychron Shortcuts You're NOT Using (Tips, Shortcuts Guide)

Ғылым және технология

Getting the MOST out of your Keychron Keyboard
The Keychron K series keyboards have a bunch of useful shortcuts built into the board that they don't tell you on their quick guide in the box! In this video, I'm going to walk you through most of these so you can get more out of your purchase.
Note - Not all of these shortcuts will work across all of the K series boards, which is why I am demonstrating with two different ones.

    30 minute auto-sleep timer is helpful! Because of the default being 10 minutes, I have always had to choose between leaving it on and waking my keyboard 3-5 times a day, or turning it off and finding my keyboard dead because I forgot to turn it off. Thanks for the tips!!

    I used the program SharpKeys to do exactly this - free, small, and recommended by keychron. Set up the key substitution, click 'write to registry', and restart your computer. Program doesn't need to run after setup because its a regedit. Easy enough to undo with the program as well. Another option is AutoHotKey but it isn't quite as easy and needs to run on startup. The screenshot key on keychrons is the print screen key (Special: PrtSc (E0_37)). Hope this helps

    Can anyone help me? I bought a second hand K3. I checked almost all the key before I bought, but I realize the UP Arrow Key is not working after a week of buying it. There is no guarentee, and I don't want to bother with the seller as he only sold it to me for 40 bucks. The problem is the UP Arrow Key is not working. I tried swap the switch with del key and many other keys but it doesn't work. So I thought that the PCB just die. But then I found that the PCB on which upon this key is not dead yet. Because when I hold the key and then switch between Bluetooth/Cable mode, the key registered, but only once time only. when I stop holding it, it won't work again. I think you guys know how to fix this. I tried updating firmware and the problem still there. Please help.
